The Twig’s 84th Annual Historic Alexandria Homes Tour

On the last Saturday of every September, the public has a unique opportunity to experience what Alexandria’s historic properties offer to those who make Old Town their home. Tour highlights include original and preserved structures, curated artwork, and historical collections — all set against Virginia’s lovely autumn weather as you walk from home to home.
